Select the Metadata Entity to Monitor

​
Configure Filters (Optional)

If you do not set any filter, the alert will apply to all events over the selected source entity type.
Filters allow refining the scope of the alert to focus only on relevant changes. The available filter criteria depend on the source entity selected. Events can be narrowed down basing on a variety of criteria, including:
  • Owner: Filter events based on the designated owner of the asset.
  • Entity FQN: Filter by the Fully Qualified Name of the entity.
  • Event Type: Filter by the specific action that occurred (e.g., Created, Updated, Deleted).
  • Updater Name: Filter based on the user or service that executed the change.
  • Domain: Filter events based on the Data Domain the entity belongs to.
  • Filter By Updater Is Bot: Filter to include or exclude changes made by automated ingestion or system processes.
Use the Include toggle to define the logic for the filter condition:
  • Include (Toggle ON): If the event meets the filter condition, the alert is sent.
  • Exclude (Toggle OFF): If the event meets the filter condition, the alert is silenced (not sent).
You can add multiple filters to a single alert subscription. Define Filters Define Filters
